The irony of 71 down. It’s a trap, but only if you answered Star Trek.
Forcing the Trekkies write in an Admiral Ackbar quote makes this extra funny.
No love for Stargate
Different categories. Star Wars and Star Trek are fantasy. Stargate was just a documentary about “MacGyver” and his “secret government job” at “Cheyenne Mountain” where they played it off as “Wormhole Xtreme” so all the sheeple wouldn’t wake up
They (NYT) also did a similar one on election day in November 1999, where the answer could be both GWBUSH and ALGORE with the hint “The next president of the United States”. Their crossword puzzle person/team is pretty clever.
Edit: I might have misremembered after a quick kagi search. This seems the one I had in mind: https://www.reddit.com/r/todayilearned/comments/2zqn4o/til_that_the_new_york_times_published_a_crossword/
Real fans acknowledge that both franchises have merit, and only poke good-natured fun at the other. Losers get seriously mad about it.
I’m indifferently uninterested in both.
Something about this just tickles my brain right
Star Twerks
Is there a blank version somewhere?
Here you go, but it’s been clipped from a bigger crossword (New York Times, February 6th 2022) and some of the squares across don’t make sense in isolation.
The full crossword answer sheet is here on NYT.com but I doubt you’ll be able to find a full blank grid and the clues online.
Wow ! You’re a hero! I searched for a while but only found filed out ones, or the whole crossword. Thank you!
No worries - I just popped it open in GIMP and painted over the letters, the work of a moment.
Not sure which side you are after:
But what about Star Taes?
I prefer Star Tark, the franchise built around former University of Nevada-Las Vegas men’s basketball coach Jerry Tarkanian. It’s like Dr. Who, but with more sweet jumpers and recruiting violations.
Star Trek or Star Wars?
Yes.
